well, its old so…you know…artifacts and all 
I havent seen much lately. BUt they had text attached to them as well…I cant remember it all but I complained ot facebook aobut alot the stuff and they just ignored it. THey would be like these dead or dying super skinny dogs or cats. Sometimes they would have maggots or something on them. I remember the last of the text was always “…and the ending”
something like this post but worse…
they were very disturbing and facebook wouldnt do ■■■■.
After working for ambulance service I too feel they keep following me.
Baader-Meinhof phenomenon
I feel most of it could be related to the above phenomenon

I had that with turkey vultures. We learned about turkey vultures in geography and all of a sudden I noticed them in lots of places. I never knew what a turkey vulture was until I learned about them in geography.

Understandable. Wasnt sure about posting. Now you know how I feel when I was getting that crap on my timeline. And they were worse.

Yeah, that’s gotta be horrible to keep seeing. Do you report the posts? I haven’t used facebook in a few years, but I know they had a system for flagging inappropriate posts, or even just informing the algorithm that you want to see less of a certain kind of post. Doesn’t help in the moment, but it might stop them from showing up later. Then again, I don’t know if the flagging feature is still present on facebook.

I reported a number of disturbing posts and they always didnt remove them or do anything.

That is frustrating and creepy. When I was using facebook, the algorithm picked up that I’m Syrian, so it kept showing me posts about the war featuring images of children with horrific injuries I could not handle it, and that’s one reason I quit.

yes, some of my other disturbing posts were stuff like that as well…facebook is going to hell.
Maybe the ads were from the ASPCA or some other organization that focuses on the prevention of cruelty to animals? You said on another thread that you donate money to a charity, and that info is in a database. And I would expect the images to become less frequent as we’re no longer in the holiday season.
What do you think?

It’s paranoia @Bowens , New things everywhere, but you are thinking that this is following you. And all 4 points are related to this. Take medicine by the way.

- Either deja vu or jamais vu. Either you swear something has happened before or you dreamt about it. My family used to get it alot. Not me so much as I have like groundhog day thoughts going …not just one little experience but the whole day. It’s controlled by my AP now and I don’t get any sort of those thoughts anymore. Also often we will have conversations with one person and forget we had or family and friends talk about things without us knowing or realizing. So they may pick up the subject part way and it seems they know more about it then you’ve put forward. It used to bug me back when I first got SZ as I thought is was embarrassing and thought my mental illness would resolve itself soon. I know now things seem to be counter…as in less you worry about it the sooner it gets better. Just gotta stay healthy. And like others said it could be a sign of dementia…or the dreaded lack of or too much sleep.
